Any plans for titanium hinge pins for the associated B/T5 Series?

It's not necessarily the diameter that is the issue; it's the material properties of titanium. Titanium will not bend/deflect like steel will prior to yielding (breaking) and in the case of hinge pins, it's sometimes better to finish the race with a slightly bent hinge pin that can be replaced very cheaply versus snapping an expensive titanium one and being out of the race to boot.

Right, that's why I could not use my shims when I still had installed the plastic suspension mounts. Everything has been fine with the FT aluminum mounts except they are blue. Too bad no one has come out with a full set of black aluminum goodies for AE's 5th gen series. I am not about to hold my breath, but beating a dead horse won't hurt...

Any chance 12mm hex 60mm front wheels for the b44.3 in the works?
#8349
Like pink mentioned, the 22-4 wheel is the same offset and can be used on the B44.3 with the 12mm hexes - 60mm wheel

PW, maybe market/label the TLR 22-4 wheel to the b44.3 guys?

The problem there is that if you want to run these on a b44.3 you NEED the 12mm hex. A lot of guys that have had the b44, b44.1, b44.2 all have most likely had wheels/tires from those platforms. The old hex is not 12mm and even the b44.3 it is an option part. As more migrate to the 12mm front hex then I would think you would see this marketed to them. Until then maybe a disclaimer on the package or something of that sort.

Good to know that I can use the 22-4 wheels now.

PW, is the Silencer body for the B5m thicker than the stock body? Looking for increased durability. Thanks.

What's the word on gold Stadium Truck Dirt Webs? I've had them on backorder forever and the date keeps getting pushed back.
